World food security threatened by invasion of Ukraine (Fern’s AG Insider) 

February 25, 2022


The Fern.org (AG Insider) published an article that reported on the IFPRI analysis that stated global food supplies were put in jeopardy both directly and indirectly by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. The war will constrict grain supplies in the short term, and it would disrupt the flow of fertilizer needed for crop production in many countries.  (See blogpost, How will Russia’s invasion of Ukraine affect global food security?)
